I am officially stepping down as a maintainer of Bitcoin Core. Serving as the wallet maintainer for the past three years has been an absolute privilege, and I want to thank my incredibly generous sponsor John Pfeffer (

) for his support throughout. /1

I'm sad to leave the role, but can no longer dedicate the time required, as I approach the end of my PhD. It is only because of John and my GitHub sponsors' support that I was able to prioritise working on Bitcoin part-time these last few years. But now is the right time to go./2

As you are probably aware, John also financially supports so many other projects and innovations in the Bitcoin space, so on behalf of the entire community, I want to thank you again John for all you do for Bitcoin! You have made, and continue to make, such an enormous impact. /3

While here, I will make another appeal to any person or company that benefits from Bitcoin development somehow - please consider supporting a developer financially! Open source projects are difficult to survive off, and it is an amazing way to help out even if you can't code. /5
